Complexify - A JQuery Password Strength Plugin
Whilst we're mentioning my friend Dan Palmer, it only seemed fitting that I link to his recent JavaScript project, Complexify. It's super cool. He explains:
Many websites give an indicator of how secure a password is, and require a minimum standard of security. However this is always poorly implemented with rules such as 'must require a number' even if the password is 30 characters long and clearly very secure. Often the only requirement is a minimum number of characters, a very poor indicator of password strength.
Complexify calculates a rating for the password based on how difficult it would be to brute-force it.
Enter your password to a service which is vital to you in the demo box on Dan's site. How strong is your password? Mine comes to 86%. I'm assured by Dan that 86% is a pretty good score.
